Israel’s Air Force has completed preparations for a possible attack on Iran, according to local media on Monday.

The Israeli public broadcaster KAN said Tel Aviv is planning a “limited response” that would allow Iran to contain it, to avoid an all-out war.

Iran on the other hand said that that any fresh military action by Israel against his country will see a response “within seconds.”

Israel’s state broadcaster KAN on Monday said that the Israeli leadership seeks to keep the Gaza Strip as the main battlefield, and doesn’t want to turn it into a secondary front.

It announced that its preparations for a possible attack on Iran were completed.

On the nature of the planned Israeli attack, KAN said the Israeli response could be assassinations inside Iran or a wide-scale cyber attack.

KAN, citing an Israeli official, said Israel pledged to inform the US before launching any attack against Iran.

Early on Monday, Israeli Army Chief of Staff Herzi Halevi said Israel would respond to the weekend’s Iranian attack.

Iran launched a barrage of drones and missiles at Israel on Saturday in response to the April 1 attack on the Iranian Consulate in Damascus, Syria, in which at least 13 people were killed, including seven military advisers.

Iran’s deputy foreign minister for political affairs issued a stern warning Monday, saying that any fresh military action by Israel against his country will see a response “within seconds.”

Speaking to state TV, Ali Bagheri Kani, who is also Iran’s chief negotiator in nuclear talks, said if Israel makes another “mistake,” the response will be very swift.

“In the event of another mistake, they must expect a response that is more swift and strong,” he asserted, adding it will not be in days or hours but in a matter of seconds.

Kani called the Israeli attack a “strategic mistake,” which he said “provided a legitimacy for a serious test of Iran’s military and defence capabilities.”

“If there is any rationality in the Zionist regime, they should not repeat their mistake with another mistake,” he said, referring to Israel.
